Pa. gets grant to study paid family leave



The Commonwealth of Pennsylvania Department of Labor and Industry will receive a $250,000 federal grant to conduct a cost-benefit analysis for different paid family-leave models.

The grant, awarded Tuesday by the U.S. Department of Labor's Women's Bureau, is part of $3 million in research grants distributed to 17 states and municipalities to analyze how paid-leave programs can be developed and implemented.

As part of its work, the Pennsylvania's labor department will conduct a feasibility study of a state administrative infrastructure to support a paid family leave program.
